Sarong Secrets Zusammenfassung

Sarong Secrets Su Kim Lee

A delightful collection of 12 short stories that brings the reader into the world of the Peranakans, or the Straits Chinese, a colourful community still in existence today in Malacca, Penang and Singapore. Through the stories, the reader gains a fascinating insight into the culture, beliefs and way of life of the Babas and Nyonyas who make up the people. All the stories are based on or are inspired by real-life events which the author has collected from her nyonya mother, grandmother, relatives and friends.

Sarong Secrets Bewertungen

For nearly 20 years, Lee Su Kim has been writing about Malaysia's folkways, enlightening readers with tidbits of Malaysian Flavours, the title of her first book. She grew up in a world of sarongs ... colourful, crisp sarongs, starched till they could function as changing rooms when left to stand on their own...Whether Malaysian or foreigner, Lee's writings in Sarong Secrets, as in her previous Kebaya Tales, afford a delightful portrayal of peranakan men, women and children in their daily lives. Because she brings us in so close, we share the feelings and emotions, the laughter and the tears, of everyday people. Sarong Secrets is an insider's view of a facet of Malaysian society. --Allen Wittenborn is an author and former professor of History and Asian Studies who divides his time between San Diego, California and Southeast Asia, contributor The New Straits Times
